Unfortunately, the hole began to seep water in pretty short order and had to be abandoned. After the machines were driven to another site, more digging ensued, first with the 420F backhoe and then the excavator. The second hole was more fruitful: It exposed timber from a previous exploration and was deemed a significant discovery. Because any treasure at that location was apt to be buried deep below where the equipment can reach, the machines were parked for a while.

The attachment can be used on the Steiner 450 and 440 tractors. The trencher has a 5½-in. standard cutting width, but also can dig as narrow as 4¾ in. It can help with the installation of lighting, irrigation, pet fences or other landscape renovation projects.
